NovelAppChapter 1299 In the pouring rain, Romeo's henchmen held an umbrella over him, while others formed a human barrier behind him, blocking Arabella's line of sight.
Almost instantly, the bloodcurdling scream of Mr. Elliot reverberated through the air.
Romeo discarded the bloodstained switchblade to the side.
Carl handed him a disinfectant wipe, and after Romeo cleaned his hands, he tossed that aside as well.

It was at this moment that he truly witnessed the ruthlessness of Romeo. His gentle, devoted, and doting demeanor within the confines of the house was solely reserved for Arabella.
Outside, he remained as cold-blooded and brutal as ever.
Romeo glanced at his men, who quickly seized Mr. Elliot and forced him to move forward.
Taking the umbrella from his henchman, Romeo approached Arabella, drawing her into his embrace, “Move closer. Don't get wet." Upon seeing the man wrapping an arm around Arabella and slowly walking away, Gordon paused for a moment before catching up with them.
In front, Mr. Elliot kept looking back, "Please, don't harm my family. | will tell you everything | know. Please spare therm." His family was his weak point.
But no one responded to him.
Romeo and Arabella continued forward, their silhouettes perfectly matched, causing Gordon's gaze to darken even further.
The rain was relentless, keeping people indoors. Seven or eight black sedans were parked by the street, Carl respectfully opened the car door for Arabella.
"Carl, take him to my uncle's place. Let him handle it, Arabella instructed.

But the man in the car spoke up, "Carl, let him in." Carl was surprised. Romeo was actually letting an outsider interrupt his twith Ms. Bella.
Without a second thought, Carl opened the passenger door, gesturing respectfully for Gordon to get in, “Please.” Gordon obliged, getting into the car and looking towards the rearview mirror.
Romeo, holding Arabella, looked at her hand with concern, "Does it hurt?" "This little scratch is nothing,” Arabella shrugged it off, laughing, "If you had been any more forceful just now, | would have lost my lead." "I know he's valuable to you, so | spared him. Don't worry. He won't die” Romeo reassured, still looking at her hand, "Once he's of no use, he won't get off easy." Gordon felt like he was seeing Romeo for the first time, as ruthless as rumors suggested.
"I missed you,” Romeo whispered in her ear, "Did you miss me?" "I've been busy lately” Arabella responded, causing Romeo to feel a pang of disappointment.
"lI haven't missed you as much as before" Her next sentence, however, brought a smile back to Romeo's face.
